Beta for Starlink

[dortyboy]

I received a notification from tmobile stating I've been included in the beta for starlink. I can behind using the service but in settings it says I dont have the service. Am I missing a step or I have to wait to next software update???

I think you would have to contact T-Mobile about that, since it's their contract with Starlink. It's my understanding, though, that the Starlink feature is only meant to augment mobile service when in remote areas. There may not actually be an "on" switch and it may not be active all the time.

It's part of their satellite communication system. Contact them to resolve your ssue.

You are right. It only showed up after I turned off my wifi and placed my phone in airplane mode. After I turned off airplane mode it finally said" You're subscribed "

I agree, contacting T-Mobile is what you should do...that being said, I got the same notification today. If you go into your phone settings, then "Connections", does yours look like my screenshot? Also, as Realaud said above, it only connects to the satellite when your signal is low or in remote areas. That's how I understood it too. It also is only for text messaging at this segment of the beta. They said picture messaging, data services and voice calling will be in the future...
